VPN connects but cannot browse network

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



I have setup a Server 2008 with RRAS and the Routing services. This machine
has only a single NIC and is behind a NAT router and firewall. I have
forwarded port 1723 and GRE to the IP of the server.

My clients can sucessfully connect but they cannot access my network. I want
them to use the Sharepoint services which is on the same machine as the VPN
server.

I have my own DHCP and DNS cache located on another machine. I have setup
VPN to assign remote IP addresses from the DHCP. This does happen properly.
But users cannot browse my network nor access any of the webservers. The
network access just times out in IE according to my users.

What have I missed? NPS seems properly setup...connections are allowed. No
IP restrictions at all. Enable Router Manager is ticked on the Interface.
I've looked around everywhere I can for a couple of days now and can't see
what I've done wrong.

Wondering if I should use static routes instead. and create a separate pool
of IP address in another subnet? I'm not a networking expert either...this is
challenge for me.

VP server is:
IP 192.168.1.231
gateway 192.168.1.254 (router)
mask 255.255.0.0

I was thinking the pool will be 192.168.2.x
and setup static route as:
192.168.1.0 255.255.255.0 gateway 192.168.1.231

I'm not a networking expert and my user's don't know a thing about
computers...so I'm not getting much help either.

Any ideas what I've done wrong?

Sal.
